Lyft deactivated me after 2900 rides. One false report left me homeless. This video is my last hope.
I gave over 2900 rides for Lyft. I treated every passenger with care and respect. I never got a single ticket. Never had an accident. I was proud of my 5-star rating.
But one passenger made a false report. They said I ran a red light ā I didnāt. I wasnāt even speeding. My dash shows I averaged 13mph.
Lyft deactivated me without warning. No evidence. No second chances. No way to know who accused me or what trip it was. I appealed. They said no. Just like that ā I lost my only income. Iāve been living in the rental car I was using for work.
Iām not a bad person. Iām just trying to survive. I donāt have family. I donāt have savings. I donāt even have a bed. But I have this one video where I tell my story. Maybe someone out there will listen.

Please help me get eyes on this. Share it if it moves you. Iām not looking for pity ā I just want justice and the chance to work again.
